Hey Fellow Worshipers!
“...let
us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith
brings, having our hearts sprinkled
to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly to
the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.
And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are
in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and
all the more as you see the Day approaching.” Hebrews 10:22-25 (NIV)
I call this portion in Hebrews 10 the “lettuce” passage.
Vs. 22 let us draw near to God with a
sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings...
Vs. 23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope
we profess, for he who promised is faithful.
Vs. 24 And let us consider how we may spur one
another on toward love and good deeds,...
Vs. 25 (let us) not give up meeting together,
as some are in the habit of doing...
Vs. 25 (let us) encourage one another...
I encourage you today to draw near to God, hold unswervingly
to our Hope, consider spurring someone on today, meet with a fellow believer,
and find ways to encourage those around you for “we are not of those who shrink
back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved”. (vs. 39)
Worshiping with you today,
Lisa
